The Ba Son Bridge (Vietnamese: Cầu Ba Son), formerly temporary named as Thủ Thiêm 2 Bridge, is a 6-lane bridge in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam that opened in 2022.[1][2] The bridge crosses the Saigon River to link District 1 and Thu Duc City.[3][4]
The bridge was named after the former historical Ba Son Shipyard next to the bridge, now known as the Ba Son Complex. The Ba Son Station of the Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 1 near the bridge in District 1 opened on 22 December 2024.[5]
